All language subtitles for Bergerac s01e07

I knew he was in the trees

- the moment he drove from the 1 2th.
- So did he, Walter.

Funny how they learn not to swear.

hey do swear, Walter, just like us,
only they edit out on the telly.

Now, the funniest thing
is the way we love to see a top pro

play a really lousy shot
on our golf course.

It makes us forget the even lousier shots

we've all played
on the same hole, I suppose.

he 1 2th's always been good for me.

You've never taken the 1 2th from me,
have you, Charlie?

God, big tournament in Jersey
and you're like kids, you two.

How did you ever make it?

Golf's a serious business, Sheila.

Don't tell me. Jacklin doesn't make
the cut, it's like a death in the family!

Hello, what's this?

Only keep you a moment, sir.

Evening, Officer.

Sorry to trouble you...sir.

Reduced to roadblock duty now, are we?

We're all out, checking the traffic.

Seems to be the week
for picking off the wealthy residents.

It's Jim Bergerac, isn't it?

hat's right. Detective Sergeant Bergerac.

We're hardly likely
to be robbing ourselves, Jim.

Unless you're cheating on the insurance.

I wouldn't mind
getting back some of the premiums.

hat's all right, they're clean.

hank you very much, Sergeant(!)

Come on!

Jesus!

hanks, Charlie.

Night!

- See you at the course tomorrow.
- OK. ake care.

he alarm's off.

Maybe you forgot.

No.

It's been cut.

Oh, Walter!

He's going in for his kip now.

ake her in slowly.

(WHISLES)

Ah!

Careful!

(ENGINE SARS)

All my best jewellery,
all the most valuable things.

hey seemed to know exactly what to take.

he skilled thieves usually do.

his time they used a boat.

y boat. Bloody cheek.

Had you well sussed out, didn't they?

here's a path from the beach
up to the house.

No way they would have been seen
at that time of night.

Must have thought it was easier that way.

hey seem to be finding it easy
in every way, Sergeant.

- It was ''Jim'' last night.
- Was it?

Wait till Charlie hears about this,

they must have been going over this place
while you were holding us down there!

Mr Gidleigh is here from the insurance.

Good morning,
though I use the term loosely.

Mr Vance...and yet again, Sergeant.

Your company
taking a bit of a beating, Gidleigh?

Let's say head office in London
is a trifle concerned.

Including this one we're covering
on three major robberies out of the five,

within a week.

Not a very good average,
by anybody's standards.

And how many more to come?

Mr Gidleigh needs a list
of everything that's gone.

We'd like one, too, please.

A fat lot of use that'll be.
hese laddies aren't locals, are they?

You don't know that.

It's my guess this stuff's being whistled
off the island as soon as it gets nicked.

We can't be certain.

I'm sorry, but nobody has very much faith
in the police just now.

A view we're bound to share.
I hear your boat's gone too.

Yes.

hank heavens that's not insured with us.

Well, I'll leave you two to sort it out.
hey must be on the first tee by now.

Walter, surely you aren't
going to the golf today!

Why not?
Not a lot I can do here, is there?

It's down to you, both of you,
one way or the other.

Do you know where my jacket is, love?

It's amazing the difference
money makes, isn't it?

Stops you bothering
about the material things.

Horatio!

Who is it?

Jim. Jim Bergerac.

Now I can see you - Jim!

How are you doing, you old wrongdoer?

Mixture as before,
some pain, some pleasure. And you?

Much the same.

Very busy.

I know. Heard the news on the wireless.

Another big one, they say.
But the world's full of dishonesty.

You puff on that cigar and reflect.

You think I might know
something about it, eh?

Might even be wondering if
I've slipped back into my bad old ways.

I'm always wondering about you, Horatio.

hat's what makes you
so interesting to me.

- Mmm?
- No, thanks.

Oh, I forgot.
he word's out you've reformed.

You listen a lot, don't you?
hat's why I'm here.

You should have stuck
to the juice of the grape, Jim.

he grain's a killer.
hat's what put me inside.

Gave me the shakes something awful.

here's nothing
but goodness in the grape.

You're a great self-deceiver, aren't you?!

Don't start giving me one of
your AA lectures. Let me die happy.

You heard from any of your old friends
on the mainland?

Any theories, ideas about the break-ins?

Believe me,
I'm out of touch these days. Not a thing.

hey could be French. But they're pros.

If they are outsiders,
they know a hell of a lot.

A little inside knowledge, you mean?

You always need that, Jim.

None of that stuff been offered locally,
has it?

No. And it won't be.

And when it's slipped out,
it'll be under some legitimate cover.

ransporter, maybe, tomatoes, flowers.
Nicely tucked away.

If it were me, I'd stop now,
but this team's greedy. After you.

hanks.

Greedy and working to a plan.

(CLOCKS CHIME)

hey'll pull a few more jobs
in Jersey yet.

- You think so?
- Get ahead of them.

hey're after prime targets, so...
who's left? Hmm?

Insurance boys ought to help you
with that one.

You've got me going like a grass!

Still collecting clocks, then, I see.

When anything likely comes up.
Want to have a look?

No, I've got to get back. hanks.

Any time, Jim. Any time.

(APPLAUSE)

hey've found your boat.
Only a deck cleat damaged.

Where did you find it?

Gorey Harbour.

he thieves? Did you catch them?

his is yours, I take it. Solid silver.

Ah! Always had a soft spot
for this little lady.

Is that all they left?

'Fraid so.

Ronnie, get out of the way, will you?

TV: It's Australia's
Greg Norman to tee off.

You're a cool customer, Mr Vance.

What did you say?

I said you're a cool customer.
Don't even let a robbery spoil your golf.

Golf's something more
than a game, Sergeant.

You don't know what you're missing.
Can I get you something, drink, sandwich?

- No, thanks.
- here you are, Walter.

Heard your name being called.
Hello, Jim. Not bad news, I hope?

We had a burglary last night, Charlie.

What? You mean after I dropped you off?

Hell of a mess. You better watch out.
You could be next on the list.

I hope you're joking, Walter.

- Ask him.
- Better lock up your cufflinks, Charlie.

I don't think that's particularly funny.

Anyway, what's going on in your Bureau des
Étrangers, and elsewhere for that matter?

Island the size of a pocket handkerchief,
you haven't got a clue!

We're doing our best, Charlie.
here are three times the population

on the island at the minute.
Or hadn't you noticed?

hey know how to knock out alarm systems.

Well, I've got something else, a Smith
& Wesson. And I'm a very light sleeper.

Oh, I'd forget the gun, Charlie,
if I were you. For your own good.

Well, nail the bastards, then.

(WHISPERS) Shh, Charlie. It's not the kind
of language you expect in a clubhouse.

You'll put him off his game.

Why don't we toddle over
to the short eighth

and see who's pin-high and who isn't?

Come on! Don't be such a bloody misery.
We're five up and two to go.

- hank you very much.
- It's a pleasure.

Can I mark your card?

I never expected to see you here.

I didn't expect to be here.

Are you on duty?

Haven't been off duty for 24 hours.

hese big thefts?

- Mmm.
- You look tired.

More bloody tired
looking after the filthy rich.

Got to go home and get some sleep.

Yeah, half past eight, after dinner.
All right?

Hello! Francine, isn't it?

Yes.

Hello, Deborah.

Showing Jim his way around, are you?
Or aren't you here for the golf?

Never could stand the game or the people.
You should remember that.

I must be going. Delighted meeting you
again. See you later.

I'll see you later.

How's Kim enjoying her holiday?
Have you heard?

She phoned last night.
Having a great time at her friend's.

Wants to stay on in Ibiza another week.

Well, why not? Leaves you nice and free
to play about, doesn't it?

You certainly are.

I'd forgotten how pretty she is.

Being French, I expect she's good in bed.

Oh, she's terrific! Artiste!

hanks, Eddie. hat's fine.

Yeah, well, I was hoping
to keep a low profile.

You know, avoid any personal publicity.

You're doing this job, aren't you?

Well, a man's got to earn a living.

It's a diary piece. It could help sales.

No follow-up, then, OK?

Sure. Understand.
Good to see you're keeping your hand in.

Eddie, have we got a 2-wood?

Er...yes. In the boxes at the back.

Ha-ha...!

(WHISPERS) What the hell
are you doing here? Come on!

Don't you realise how dangerous it is
for us to be seen together?

Don't worry, we're just taking in
a little bit of the day's play.

And making sure
you got safely back to base.

What's that supposed to mean?
You thought I was going to run away?

Perish the thought, that'd be unsporting.

- For God's sake!
- All right. ake it easy!

I thought you two
were supposed to be the professionals!

If you've got any intelligence,
get out of here!

Don't worry. We've got our next little bit
of homework to do this afternoon.

Well, do it.

Well, there's nothing there.

It's like I told you, Barney.

I still can't believe
that nobody saw anything.

Well, the only person around
was the harbour official.

Yeah, and he was having a crafty kip
all night, wasn't he?

Any news from the Yard?

No, just some joke about the big blaggers
being away for their annual hols.

- In Jersey.
- Yeah. Heaven help us.

Chief get rough with you, did he?

You're not kidding.
He used me like a bloody shock absorber.

He's taking a pounding from all of them,
senator, press, insurance companies...

- Who could help, instead of criticising.
- As my friend Horatio says.

Who the hell's he?

Horatio - would you believe - Nelson.

Used to be
the best housebreaker on the island.

I sounded him out because he's got ears
like electronic seashells.

And?

He reckons the robberies are going on.

Nice little pile of bricks.
Let's have a butcher's.

One thing about the Jersey rich,
they do like their privacy.

Just like me and you.

It's a snip.

Will you ever learn?
here are no snips in this business.

Why don't you do like
what it says on the posters,

''he island that brings out the smiles''.

What you are asking for
is a total breach of confidence.

Do you want my credentials?

hat's not the point! Our clients' must
give their permission first.

By the time we've done that,
it could be too late.

Come on, you ought to know.

Jersey residents
can be obsessed with secrecy.

After all, many of them are refugees
from the British tax system.

I tell you, I wish I had their problems.

Look, other companies have cooperated.

I've got a list here
of top names and house policies.

Maybe...

but I'd have to seek
head office approval first.

Get onto them. You've only just finished
stirring it with my head office.

Hello, Mrs Beresford.

hanks, Andy.
Oh, and use the pool any time you like.

hank you very much. Bye.

Bye.

What's this?
Shouldn't you have gone home by now?

Sandwiches.
he chief's called a get-together

and we think it might go on for a while.

Oh, I was going out tonight, too!

It's our job is to protect the wealthy
and to catch any villains

who think they can come over here
and prey on them, that is our speciality,

so the rest of the force
can get on with the business

of looking after ordinary mortals.

But eight days and five break-ins,
and where are we?

Sorry, guvnor.

I'll tell you where we are, gentlemen.
We are exactly nowhere.

he senator and his committee
are breathing down my bloody neck!

We'll have new roadblocks tonight.

Good. Where?

St Ouen, rinity, Brouville.

Good. But remember, we need
a little imagination as well as action.

he timing's perfect, isn't it?
It's the height of the season,

there's a big conference,
yachting race and a golf tournament.

Island's like a sardine tin.

I think we're dealing with
a two or three-handed bunch.

hey've got a good wire man on the team.

hey've knocked out
at least two very tricky alarm systems.

If only there were
some discernible pattern.

hey seem to be
picking off houses at random.

- here is a pattern. Pots of money.
- hat's fairly obvious.

Yes. Maybe the obvious is what we should
all concentrate on a little bit harder.

Remember what I said
about the docks at the airport.

Right. Any other thoughts?

- elevision warnings.
- hat's in hand.

I managed to prise a good list
out of the insurance companies.

- Houses that could still be in line.
- Good, that should help.

Share them out, two or three each.

Right, leave me to it. ime I was going.

Another damned official function,
so get on with it, right?

Hold it. Hold it. We're not through yet.

Have you got the new run-down
on all those stolen items, Charlotte?

Yes.

What's the matter with you wrong?
You've got a date?

Right, now, Francine...

Ssh-ssh-ssh.
Silence, s'il vous plait.

Now, I want you to rid your mind
of everything except that little ball.

Relax. hat's better.

Now, put your hand on top of mine.

here we are. Relax. Come on.

Now, just hit it very slowly.

Lentement. Lentement.

(HEY ALL CHEER)

Look who's come to visit us, Jim.
Eddie St Pierre.

Yeah, I know him. I've met him.

Careful. It's the law!
No public gambling on Jersey.

Frankie had given you up. What happened?

Heavy day.

Here you are at last!

I'm sorry.

here you go.

Hello, Eddie.

Jim Bergerac!

Well, well, well!

It's good to see you again. It really is.
It's...detective sergeant now, isn't it?

Yeah.

Come and sit down.

And a lot more besides.
Frankie and Lil were filling me in.

Oh, they have, have they?

I dropped by for a drink
for old times' sake.

- Lil's still 1 1 out of 1 0, isn't she?
- He hasn't changed.

Persuaded me to stay
and have something to eat.

Well, it made a bit of a party.

Yeah, Gulliver did us proud! I haven't had
lobster thermidor like that for years.

Here we are.
£2 for you and a fiver for Eddie.

Right, Lil,
you know what to do with that, don't you?

Right.

Come on, Jim, do what the lovely lady
says, asseyez-vous.

You want to eat now?

No, I'm past it. You must be here
for the classic golf tournament, Eddie.

Yeah, that's right.

You ought to be scoring well
with your knowledge of the course.

- You're joking!
- No, I'm not. I don't follow golf myself.

Well, I haven't been on the circuit
as a player for a long time.

Eddie is working at the tournament.

You're working, not playing?

You're talking to a marquee name
reduced to a marquee.

I've worked my way down from the top.

Oh, I'm sorry about that.

You haven't got any reason to be.
It's not your fault.

No, it's a very good job.
I enjoy it. Get around.

I mean, I wouldn't have met
this lovely lady, would I?

Listen, I must make a phone call.

Compliments of Flitepath. Excusez-moi.

You don't like him, do you?

Not a lot.

Are you jealous?

I'm tired.

I'm sorry. Do you want to go home?

Yeah. Do you mind?

(PHONE RINGS)

(DOGS BARK)

Yeah?

EDDIE: Is it all set?

And you?

You were supposed
to have phoned an hour ago!

Yes, yes, I know. Something came up.

Yeah.

Yeah. I'll see you as arranged.

Er...

Jim sends his apologies. He needs
his bed. He's been on these robbery cases.

(SARS ENGINE)

So he was a good golfer?

He was a brilliant golfer.
He was fifth in the Open one year.

A big moneymaker in Europe
for a short time...

and he was pro at the Royal Atlantic.

And then?

It all started to go wrong.
Game first, I think,

or was it the booze, the gambling
and the ladies? I dunno.

- Gambling?
- Lots of that.

And ladies?

- Never stopped.
- He's very attractive.

Yeah, well, it's easy for him, isn't it?
He had to teach them.

- Good God!
- What is it?

I've just remembered.
He coached my wife.

You are jealous of him.

No. No, I'm not.
Debbie always got what she paid for.

She was too proud for that.

So, he fell off the platform.

What? It's the pedestal, Frankie.
Yeah, his game went to pieces.

His wife left him.
He had big money troubles.

ill he started milking
the profits from the pro shop.

- Stealing?
- Yeah. He denied it.

I helped with the investigations.

Did you arrest him?

No, the committee,

including Charlie Hungerford,
decided not to press charges.

You can't have a scandal up there,
can you(!)

- So he was asked to leave.
- Asked!

Last I heard he went to some
unfashionable club in Essex.

And that's the end of the story?

You don't know the rest?

Jim!

(DULL HUDS)

(SIGHS)

Oh!

(PHONE RINGS)

Hello?

Is Jim there? It's Deborah.

Hold on.

Yeah?

Daddy's been hurt. Attacked.

He's had stitches,
but there's no fracture.

- Got a nurse coming in first thing.
- Just stitches?

He'll be right as rain
tomorrow morning.

But a blow on the head like that,
it could...

Not Charlie.

You know what a tough old bird he is.

I'll bet he'll want to go to the golf
tomorrow morning.

he irony is, I did warn him.

- He didn't tell me you warned him.
- Yeah, about the game.

old him he could be high up
on the list.

- You knew and did nothing?!
- What could I do?

You put a guard on the house, of course!

My God, if Kim hadn't been
on holiday...

Look, there's over two dozen houses...

No favours for the family.

- I thought about it.
- You thought about it!

Keep your voice down.

You bastard!

Look, he said he could take care
of himself.

hat's when I stopped worrying.

You're hurting my arm.

- Hello, Eddie, how are you?
- Fine, thank you.

Here we are... Strong coffee.

- Had a bad night?
- You've no idea how bad.

hought you looked a bit rough -
both of you.

How about a nice drop of cognac
in yours, Barney?

Yeah, a nice drop of hemlock
is what I may need later in the day.

Just before my head rolls.

Inept, that's what they're going
to be screaming. Bloody inept.

We're really going to make
the headlines with this latest one.

Assault on one of
our leading millionaires!

hey left without taking a thing,
didn't they?

We'd have much more
than an assault case on our hands,

- if Charlie had used his gun.
- Yeah, well, I wish he had.

Maybe that's what we should encourage -
more of the vigilante spirit.

he club head's set back so that
the hands at address are slightly forward.

It makes for...yeah,
a much better contact.

It's a beautifully balanced club.
Have a go, sir.

- It's certainly got a nice feel.
- You've got great style...

- and a great slice.
- How did you know?

Your back swing's too steep.

You're hitting from the outside
with an open face.

Excuse me.

It's just a matter of...

Of what?

Of, er... Of correcting the grip, sir.

Joy! Could you show this man
a 7-iron, please?

Excuse me.
I won't be a minute.

- Hello, Eddie.
- Anne.

It's good to see you again,

though I was hoping I wouldn't.

Were you? Why? Because this is
a bit of a comedown for you?

I saw a piece about you in the paper.

Yes.

No...I didn't want
to open old wounds.

I see you got divorced...and married.

- Only just.
- I hope he's rich.

Oh, he is. It's Johnnie Beresford.

- Beresford?
- Mm-hm.

I thought he was...

Oh, no,
he got divorced, too, a few years ago.

I'm very happy for you.

- I mean it.
- Do you?

Look, I've got a customer.
I'd better...

Come and have lunch. oday.
You must have a lunch break.

Er... I'm not sure that's such
a good idea. What about your husband?

He's away on business in New York.
He's away a lot.

Come and have a swim. Let's chat.
Please.

- Maybe it's too late.
- We can't be sure they've given up yet.

I want all these people
on this list visited.

Phew! Who says Jersey's flat?

You sent a printer message to
Scotland Yard this morning...at dawn!

- Yes. Is that the reply?
- Mmm.

he price of that's an orange juice.
My tyres need pumping up.

Your ex-golf star Eddie St Pierre
was in Wandsworth Prison till recently.

Six months for embezzlement.

- CROZIER: What's this?
- It's just a hunch.

Look, ring Scotland Yard,

ask somebody to check,
when St Pierre was inside,

if he had any close friends,
some with a record of housebreaking.

Someone like that could give us a lead.

You're very tense.

I'm not too used
to the luxuries these days.

Of course.
You know the house quite well.

Yeah, that too.

And your old man.

I spoke to him
on the phone about half an hour ago.

He's in Manhattan.

You told him I was coming here,
of course?

Oh, don't be silly. I don't play
around any more, Eddie. Do you?

Did I ever? (LAUGHS)

I was really hooked on you.

hen you went and blew it
by going to England.

Yeah, I blew it.

But you've got it together now.
You've got a job.

And you've married money.

And now you're bored.

You heard I was on the island

and you thought
you'd have a bit of fun, right?

You always were a cynical bastard.

- Am I wrong?
- Dead wrong.

I made a mistake.

If you don't like the set-up,
why don't you get out?

Can't turn your back on all this, eh?

And he'd cut you off without a penny.

He would.

- I still love you, Eddie.
- (LAUGHS)

It's true.

I must admit...

looking at you now...

I get the old flicker
in my pulse again.

And you've still got
the sexiest mouth on the island.

Kiss me, then.

- For old times?
- For old times.

Last one.

Here, look at that.

What the hell's going on?

I never saw one of them.
I tell you, if I had...

- You were lucky, Charlie.
- hey were lucky, you mean.

Nothing makes me more sick
than thieves invading the house.

What if your daughter Kim
had been here?

What are you lot doing about it?
Isn't it time you got off your backsides?

First Walter Vance, then me.

hat's what I wanted to talk
to you about.

- Hold it. He wants this for a birdie.
- Do you have to watch the golf?

- Eh?
- I said, do you have to watch the golf?

I'd be there if I could.

Ha! He nearly missed it.
Just slid in the side door!

Ask me about what?

Do you think there's
a connection between Vance,

Peter uchill and the robberies?

Well, the connection's
pretty obvious, isn't it?

We all had a few bob about the house.

- And Beresford?
- Johnnie?

He's richer than any of us.

He hasn't had a visit from the bastards,
has he?

No, he hasn't. Not yet.

He's a friend of yours, isn't he?

I don't see him as often as I used to.

He went into the bulk commodity game.
Abroad a lot.

He was never what you'd call
a close friend.

Bad temper when he were losing.

Did he lose?

We used to have this poker school,

all perfectly legitimate, Sergeant,
in our own homes. Well, almost.

Beresford and uchill
were the hard core.

Who else played beside yourself?
Vance?

Er...sometimes. And there was
Laurie Washbrooke, the film director,

Bill Gates, Arthur Clapham...

Eddie St Pierre, the golfer?

hat scoundrel?

He used to play poker.
oo often for his own good.

Wreckless. Lost a packet.

hen he tried for IOUs.
No, he were right out of his class.

I mean, the school was too rich for him.

Ended up... Well, you know
how St Pierre ended up - a loser.

Even at his own game - golf.

hank you, Charlie.
I think you've just sunk a putt.

Eh?

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

I told you to keep away from the course.

Now I know what you mean about forgetting
the Beresford place.

It's getting too warm.

Especially after what you did
to Hungerford.

I said there was to be no violence.

Never mind that.
Let's talk about Mrs Beresford.

What about her?

On a little number with her? Very tasty!

We saw you by the pool.

hat's my business.

Our business. When you gave us the names
and me and him came in,

we became a team. Right?

So we take that house tonight
the way we planned it.

No, we don't. We leave it.
We quit while we're ahead.

What about our man in town?
You fixed him yet?

I'm paying him off this afternoon.

Why the hell did you agree
we'd pull out just because he wanted to?

Did I?

You mean...?

We go ahead like we intended to, don't we?

Oh, look!
Some poor punter's lost his ball.

Same old Eddie!

I hope you've enjoyed
your return to Jersey again.

Yes, I'd forgotten how pretty it was.
How's your handicap?

Nine.

Nine?!

I thought you'd be pleased

because it was you
who first taught me how to swing a club.

I'm very grateful.

Yes... Yes, so am I.

And ready to show your gratitude, I hope?

here's enough
for a nice early retirement.

Enough time for you
to get your handicap down to scratch.

I propose to do nothing else.

When are you going
to take it seriously again, Eddie?

here you are.

he money's all there.

Better be. You've taken
quite a lot of cash. I should know.

I've opened a little account.

Just... Just for once, it's nice to feel
one has joined the ranks of the rich.

It's so easy to hate being poor
on this island.

Yes, I know.

(CLOCKS ICK)

Horatio?

(UNES RADIO)

- Ah!
- Havana cigars.

Sorry it's not brandy.

Oh, worth a try!
hanks, Jim. Much appreciated.

How come you knew Gidleigh?

He was here that time
they lifted me for the Marmon case...

Lady O'Rourke's place.

He came over with her to identify
the stuff for the insurance.

Ever so nice, he was.

- You're sure he was taking money?
- Oh, yes! ''he money's all there.''

I heard the other bloke say it.

Dark-haired, handsome fella, about 40,
with a blue blazer?

- You're certain, are you?
- Positive.

GIDLEIGH: his is outrageous, isn't it,
bringing me in here.

And I was subjected
to a search in full view of my staff.

We thought you might still have
the money on you.

I don't know anything about
this money.

But you don't deny meeting
Eddie St Pierre?

At the moment, I deny everything.
Do you have a witness?

- Mr Horace Nelson.
- hat brazen old criminal!

Everybody knows about
Horatio Nelson.

- He's given you lot a few headaches.
- Will you sit down, please?

- He's positive he saw you.
- He's as blind as a bat.

You'd take the word of somebody like that
against a man in my position?

A man in your position would be perfectly
placed to tip off the housebreakers.

Be very careful, Bergerac.

Just because you're desperate to find
the thieves, you're clutching at straws.

hey had inside knowledge
of a special kind.

And we think we've found the key.
he pattern.

Head office would be delighted
to know it.

Motive - revenge,

with you picking up a few fringe benefits.

You're just forgetting one thing.

My insurance company doesn't cover
all of the victims,

so your theory about me
being some kind of mole doesn't work.

- I've just phoned up Charlie Hungerford.
- We don't have his business.

But you touted for it once,
didn't you?

I bet the other houses who are not
on your books have the same story.

You went through their property
and their contents.

(KNOCK A DOOR)

- Excuse me. his just came in.
- hanks.

Barney.

erry!

Eddie's great mates in prison
were Joseph Grant and Ken Clifton.

hey both had convictions
for housebreaking.

Grant was a safe-man and Clifton was
well-known for his skill with electrics.

And they both left prison round about
the same time as St Pierre.

We're still on shaky ground
with our friend in there.

Yeah, I know,
but I think we can still get him.

But first off, you'd better make sure
he doesn't blow the whistle on us.

- Hello.
- Can I help you?

- Packing up already?
- For us, it's as good as over.

- Is Eddie about?
- You've just missed him.

Aw! Do you know where he went?

Said he'd got an appointment
in Saint Helier.

But he'll be back later -
everything has to be packed up.

He's staying at the, er...
White House Hotel?

- No, the Atlantic.
- Oh, the Atlantic. hanks very much.

Yeah, Eddie St Pierre.

I'm sorry, sir. Mr St Pierre
booked out this morning.

- his morning? Are you sure?
- Paid his bill.

OK, thanks.

(CAR PULLS UP)

- Yes?
- Sergeant Bergerac.

Good evening.
Is it about the robberies?

I heard you were alerting people.

Are you expecting someone?
he look on your face.

Do you mind if I come in?

Oh, dinner for two?

I thought a friend might drop round.

Your husband's in New York,
isn't he?

What if he is? What is this?

It's not an official visit.
Your husband need never know.

Look, here, Sergeant...

Is the friend you're expecting
Eddie St Pierre?

What if it is?

Like I said, we can
keep this very confidential.

- What if I told you to go to hell?
- he answer to that is simple.

- I wouldn't go, for your own sake.
- Meaning?

I came round earlier today to warn you.
About lunchtime.

Oh, I see.

I don't think Eddie
will be back today.

- Not in daylight, anyhow.
- I beg your pardon?

Maybe later on when you're asleep.
Can I use your phone?

What are you saying?

I don't want you to take this
the wrong way,

but I think Eddie was giving you
the once-over at lunchtime.

- Nice useful visit.
- I invited him here.

Oh, I'm sure you did.
Hello, Charlotte.

Would you tell Crozier I'm at
Mrs Beresford's and I'm staying.

hanks. Bye.

Look, Sergeant, what is going on?

- hanks.
- What about your friends outside?

It's too risky. Blow their cover.

- I could do with something to drink.
- So could I.

I wish I didn't have the feeling
we could be wasting our time.

OK, let's go.

We'll take him
when we start loading the crates.

Uh-huh.

I'm one stroke ahead.

Ken...I'd like you to tie him up.

- So much for your guesswork.
- I still think they'll show.

Look, you're inside.
We've been out there and it's dawn.

I'm going home to bed.

(FOOSEPS LEAVING)

You've made yourself at home.

Since you turned on the light,
I imagine I'm safe now.

- Do you play?
- Yes.

Is that how you met him?

Yes. And now he's packed up and left.
Are you satisfied?

(GRUNING)

(RUBBING)

(SIGHING)

Bastard!

- We'll find him and we'll have him.
- I want first...

(ENGINE APPROACHING)

You're too late, Sergeant.
hey're all gone.

he girls went back by air last night.

St Pierre'll be on this morning's ferry.

hanks.

So, what do we do now?

Well, we can't go back to England now.

Hello, Eddie!

You got a few minutes to spare,
have you?

- Yes?
- (INAUDIBLE REPLY)

MAN: No.

Goodbye, Jim!

Give my love
to that lovely French girl!
